These two broken wonderful people, find each other, come together, crush each other, change lives, and finally find a way.
What a wonderful book ! I loved this hard earned tale of love and respect. Lee has earned a spot on my book boyfriend wall. I love LH Cosway’s characters, and they way they link together cross series is fabulous. Read all her books you will love them
They have great dialogue – flirty, cheeky, sassy. Great story.
Loved it!
Ever since the first meeting between Karla and Lee in King of Hearts, I have been excited to read their story. They are polar opposites: Karla is a cop and Lee is breaking the law. Lee makes his intentions known from the start, he is a big flirt. Karla doesn’t want anything to do with him but Lee keeps popping up and eventually she can’t resist him any longer.
Lee is very outgoing and funny but he has a lot on his plate. He shows Karla another side to him. Everything isn’t black and white. Karla is struggling a lot with herself. As a cop it isn’t really smart to date someone who did time and possible is still involved in criminal activity. But the heart wants what it wants. I was happy when she finally gave in and let Lee in. I loved Lee’s little brother Trevor A LOT, I am so excited that he is getting his own story. I think I am looking more forward to his story than Stu’s. However I love LH Cosway so I know I’ll enjoy Stu’s story as well. I didn’t like this book as much as the previous three in the series but it was better than I expected (the plot didn’t pique my interest). That is mainly because of the amazing characters.
The Hearts series just keeps getting better and better. Impossible not to fall in love with Lee Cross, the bad boy with the piercing blue eyes and the heart of gold. The chemistry between policewoman Karla Sheehan and Cross is off the charts and their story simply warmed my heart.
When I saw this on my kindle, I dropped my current read to dive right in and boy did I ever enjoy it!
When Lee popped up in the last book, I was instantly all about him. In this book, when I read that not only does he love to cook, gives good food, does parkour (my 9 year old wants to do that, polite pass on that.)and will do anything for his family,(even if it is highly questionable, they had to survive somehow)it was insta love!
“The problem was, some people had nothing, and their only option was to take.”
Karla and Lee’s chemistry to me, was off the charts. I couldn’t wait for the fun times to roll because I knew it was going to be hot and steamy. Lee can say the sky is blue and make that shit sound all sexual. Karla was staying strong on holding back since she’s a cop (or Constable) and Lee has a record. Karla is a badass too. I really liked her character. She does eskrima! Had to look that up and it’s so cool!
Ah, I could go on and on but really, this is a great story. I couldn’t put my kindle down, read it all in one day. When I read that 2 of the other brothers are getting books too. Weeeeeeeeee!!!! Can’t. Wait.
I really loved this story and how these two characters came together. This has been an amazing series and I look forward to the next book. I definitely recommend this book, this series and this author.
